This is a less-fun clone of EV.
Even the title text on this upload is a direct rip from the either the original Escape Velocity or EV Override's teaser text. (Long since changed on their site.)

I agree with the other reviews. It's a total copy of Escape Velocity. Why play this when you can play EV!?!?

This is a TOTAL RIP-OFF of Escape Velocity from Ambrosia Software - only it's not even close to being good.

How isn't this infringing on copyright? If you got the wherewithal to build a games, find a decent writer to give you a new story.

This is Escape Velocity Nova Lite, just get the real thing. In nova, you will also be able to sell upgrades, follow one of many story lines, get paid more or less by which upgrades you own, gamble on races, get cooler looking ships, meet Hector the Parrot, and much more.
